Chapter 161
in the big account.

"That's all for today. After you go back, you have to hurry up and train your soldiers. We don't want that kind of thing to happen again last night!"

After an hour of repeated exchanges of ideas, a border defense plan has been basically determined, and Qin Lie waved his hand and said:

"Let's all go down to eat."

"As ordered!"

Under the main seat, many high-ranking officers heard this and echoed, and then turned around and walked out of the big tent one after another.

Li Hao also turned around and walked out of the tent. In fact, today's military affairs meeting has not yet made a clear destination for him and the five hundred owl cavalry. There will probably be other arrangements in the future.

Suddenly, Qin Lie's voice came over.

"Li Hao stays here and has dinner with us here today."

Li Hao was also taken aback when he heard this, and the other generals were also taken aback when they heard this, and then turned their heads to look at Li Hao with eyes full of envy.

This bias is too obvious!

Li Hao reacted quickly, turned around, faced Qin Lie and cupped his hands and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Qin!"

Then he walked aside and waited.

Seeing this, the other generals had no choice but to leave, filled with emotion and envy in their hearts. In fact, staying at Qin Lie's place may not necessarily provide a good meal. What is important is being so close to the leader of an army. It goes without saying.

"gentlemen!"

"gentlemen!"

"..."

Suddenly Li Xuan came from outside, and the generals who bumped into him all spoke respectfully.

One is to respect his strength in the Profound Sky Realm. If he wasn't under the army, Li Xuan could easily kill them by relying on his realm.

The second is to respect him for managing the logistics of the army. Now there are tens of thousands of people in the army, food, drink, and use... are all arranged by Li Xuan.

With the combination of the two, although Li Xuan's official position is not very high, he is extremely respected in this army.

Li Xuan also nodded and responded to the words one by one, and then directly passed the crowd and walked towards the big tent.

Qin Xiaobai did not stop him, but directly let Li Xuan into the tent, which shows how high his status is in the army.

Outside the big tent, Qin Xiaobai led eight hundred guards and cavalry to guard it layer by layer. If Qin Lie hadn't nodded his approval, no one would be able to come and go freely in the big tent.

After Li Xuan entered the big tent, he immediately saw Qin Lie and Li Hao both present, but he didn't have any scruples.

"Duke Qin, the special envoy of the imperial court has already left, and I gave him another hundred gold, so I promised not to talk too much after returning to Luoyang."

"Mr. is tired."

Qin Lie was overjoyed when he heard the words, and a relaxed smile could not help appearing on his face. After all, a general like him led troops outside, and he was most afraid that the imperial envoy would talk nonsense in front of the emperor after returning. If he was not careful, he might be convicted.

"For the troubles caused by this turmoil, fortunately, some problems were exposed in advance. These Guanzhong soldiers cannot be relied on. Afterwards, we must recruit brave warriors again and form a new Liangzhou frontier army to resist the wolf clan going south."

Li Xuan seldom interfered in matters of military strategy, professional matters should be left to professional people, but when it comes to recruiting brave warriors, this is the time to speak.

Li Xuan walked to the middle of the big tent and said calmly:
"Duke Qin, don't worry about recruiting brave soldiers to form a new Liangzhou frontier army. Now our army's food, grass and supplies come from Guanzhong. At that time, you still had the right to control Guanzhong. Only then can I get enough food, grass and supplies."

"At present, the army has enough food, grass and supplies to maintain this large army. However, if we immediately recruit brave warriors, I am afraid that the army will not have enough food, grass and supplies. Therefore, the formation of the frontier army can only be done gradually."

"Ah this..."

Qin Lie immediately stood up with a frown, and paced back and forth on the main seat. Although he is now a Liangzhou captain, he can justifiably recruit and form a new Liangzhou frontier army, but he has also cut off the source of food and supplies.

After a while, Qin Lie stood still and looked at Li Xuan with a sincere expression:
"Please teach me, sir? If it doesn't work, let's write a letter and send it home. This time, we have to raise enough money and food to recruit brave warriors and form a new Liangzhou frontier army..."

"Duke Qin, don't worry."

Li Xuan was still calm and calm, his eyes were deep and dark, which seemed to be enough to make people sink, and then he smiled lightly and said lightly:
"If the money and food are all paid by Duke Qin, I'm afraid it will be bankrupt and not enough to form a frontier army, so someone must share it with us..."

After a momentary pause, Li Xuan's voice was full of meaning:
"In fact, a long time ago, the military expenditure allocated by the imperial court has been decreasing year after year, but the Liangzhou frontier army is still tenaciously maintaining it... Li Sima, do you know how the Liangzhou frontier army maintains it?"

(⊙o⊙): Huh? ? ?

Li Hao has been standing by the side silently. This question came out of nowhere, and he couldn't help being stunned. Just when he was thinking how to make up a lie to fool the past, he saw Qin Lie and Li Xuan looking at it together. come over.

This lie cannot be told!

After a moment of silence, he said with difficulty:

"Supporting horse thieves as pawns, robbing the passing caravans of Liangzhou..."

Needless to say later, they already knew each other well. Li Xuan had already guessed about this in his heart. There must be some reason for the rise of a horse thief. Now it is just to confirm this conjecture.

Qin Lie then withdrew his eyes, not only did not get angry and furious because of this, but he still seemed to be in high spirits, squinting his tiger eyes, and said in a slow voice:

"This is still a good idea. We are forming a frontier army to resist the wolves. I believe these caravans can also understand our difficulties. The people of Liangzhou will thank them for their efforts."

Surprise flashed across Li Hao's eyes, and he had a new understanding of Qin Lie's thick skin in his heart, even murder and robbery can be said to be so grandiose.

A heroic character, worthy of the name!
At the same time, Li Hao gradually realized in his heart that Qin Lie and Li Xuan didn't care about him when they talked. This meant that they had great trust in him, and at the same time tied him to the same rope.

One prospers, one loses all...

But there are some similar meanings.

Li Xuan clapped his hands and smiled immediately:
"Duke Qin does not stick to trivial matters, which is also a blessing for the people of Liangzhou. Only when a new frontier army is formed, Liangzhou can permanently avoid the suffering of wolves going south to plunder."

"It's just that the calamity of the wolf tribe has just been put down. It may take a long time for this trade route to flourish again."

Qin Lie frowned again upon hearing this:

"Sir, what should we do now? If we want to train a new frontier cavalry, it won't be done overnight. If we keep procrastinating like this, when will we be able to recruit brave warriors?"

"There is also a stopgap measure now."

Li Xuan also made full preparations, and said with confidence when he heard this:
"Mr. Du Chong has hosted Duke Qin several times. The aristocratic families in the city will definitely not be absent. They will not lack money and food. As long as they can provide money, food and people, they can at least form thousands of elite cavalry."

"So good!"

When Qin Lie heard this, his brows finally relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face:
"Just follow Mr.'s plan!"
